WORSE THAN SMALL Pox.
A Great Danger which Menaces an Un-
Suspicious Public.

| A Great Danger which Menaces an Un
suspicious Public.
The Brompton Hospital for consumptives
| In London, reports that over fifty people
| out of every hundred consumptives, are
victims OF constipated or inactive kidneys
Consumption is one Of our national dis
| eases, and the above report goes TO prove
| what has often been said in our columns
during the last eight years, that kidney
| troubles are not only the cause Of more
| than half of the cases of consumption, but
of ninety out of every hundred other COM
mon diseases. They who have taken this
position, made their claims after elaborate
| investigation, and their proof that they
have discovered specific for the terrible
and stealthy kidney diseases, which have
become so prevalent among us, is wise and
convincing.
We haye3recently received from them q
fresh supply Of their wonderful adver-
Using. They have challenged the medical
profession and science to Investigate.
They have investigated, and those who are
frank have admitted the truth Of their
statements. They claim that ninety
per cent. of diseases come originally from
inactive kidneys; that these inactive kid
news allow the blood to become filled with
uric acid poison; that this uric acid poison
in the blood carries disease through every
organ.
This being scientific fact, II requires
only ordinary wisdom TO see the effect IN
active kidneys must have upon the system.
II this poison is not removed, II ruins
every organ If the bowels, stomach or
liver become inactive, we know itAt once,
but other organs help them out II the kid
neys become constipated and dormant the
warning comes later on, and often when 1t
is too late, because the effects are remote
from the kidneys and those organs are not
suspected TO be out OF order.
Organs that are weak and diseased are
unable to resist the attacks of this poison,
and the disease often takes the form of and
is treated as a local affliction, when in re-
atty the real cause Of the trouble was in
active kidneys.
Too many medical men OF the present day
hold what was a feet twenty years ago,
that kidney disease is incurable, according
to the medicines authorized by their code.
Hence they ignore the original cause OF dis
ease itself, and give their attention to use
less treating of local effects.
They dose the patient with quinine, NOR
phine, or with salts and other physics,
hoping that thus nature may cure the dis
ease, while the kidneys continue to waste
away with inflammation, liberation and
decay, and the victim eventually perishes.
The same quantity of blood that passes
through the heart passes through the
hlunSyS. II Tue kluncyS dTe ulStdSSu, tne
blood soaks up this disease and takes 1t all
through the system, Hence IL is, that the
claim is made that Warmers safe cure, the
only known specific for kidney diseases,
cures 80 per cent OF human ailments, be-
cause it, and IL alone, isable to maintain the
natural activity of the kidneys, aud TO neu-
tralize and remove tho uric acid, or kidney
poison, as fast as it is formed.
III this acid IS not removed, there is in
activity of the kidneys and there will be
produced in the system paralysis, apo
eGse, headaches, rheumatism, pneumonia,
impotency, and all the uameless diseases
of delicate women. II the poisonous mat
ter is separated from the blood as fast as
it is formed, these diseases, in majority
of cases. would not exist.
1t only requires particle Of smallpox
virus to produce that vile disease, md the
poisonous matter from the kidneys, pass
ing all through the system and becoming
lodged at different weak points, is equally
destructive, although more disguised.
If 1t were possible for us to see into the
kidneys, and how quickly the blood pass
ing through them goes to the heart and
lungs and other parts of the system, carry |
ing this deadly virus with it, all would be- |
lieve without hesitation what has so often |
been stated in advertisements in these col |
umns, that the kidneys are the most i'm
portant organs in the body.
They may regard this article as an adver- |
tisement and refuse TO believe it, but that
is matter over which we have no control |
Careful investigation and science itself are |
beyond doubt that this organ is, |
In fact, more important than any other in |
the system as a health regulator, and as /
such should be closely watched, for the |
least sign of disordered action.
